The Benefits of a Precision Planetary Gear Reducer

If you're planning to build a car, you've probably heard of a planetary gearbox, but you're not sure what it is. In this article, we'll explain what a planetary gearbox is, how it works, and why it's beneficial. Here's a closer look. You may also be interested in a...

Advantages and Disadvantages of AC and DC Motors

The magnetic field of an electric motor determines the direction of rotation. There are two poles: the north and the south. The magnetic field that a motor produces depends on the amount of power applied. In an electric motor, the direction of rotation is set by...

Roots Vacuum Pump

A vacuum pump is a mechanical device used to create a partial vacuum in a sealed volume. Vacuum pumps operate according to the principle of entrapment, gas transfer, and the Bernoulli principle, which states that the inverse relationship between kinetic energy and...

Choosing a Transmission Chain Sprocket

A sprocket is a wheel-like piece of machinery that is used in bicycles, cars, and other large equipment. Its teeth interlock with a chain to transmit rotary motion between two shafts. The sprocket's teeth also impart linear motion to the track. Often, sprockets are...

How are Helical gearboxes and Spur gearboxes different?

Spur gearboxes are the most frequent type of gear technology; their shape causes them to be referred to as cylindrical gears in the aspect of the study. Helical gearboxes are a type of spiral bevel gear in which the axes intersect. The axis angle is typically 90...

What are Post-Hole Diggers?

A post hole digger is a convenient tool to dig small to medium-sized holes fast and effectively for gardening, farming, and other practical uses. Post-hole diggers are excellent for digging many holes, such as for fence posts, as well as holes where equipment is too...

Ringfeder(r) Locking Devices

The basic design of a locking assembly includes a shaft and a lock. The shaft is disposed in a radially symmetrical position, while the locking shoe is positioned on the eccentric portion of the shaft. The locking shoe engages with the shaft through interfitting...

Helical Gear Motors and Helical Gear Reducers

A helical gearbox is a type of industrial gear that uses special teeth to reduce the friction between them. Because of their design, helical gears are more durable and can tolerate higher loads than spur gears. These gears also tend to run quieter and smoother than...

ActionJac Worm Screw Jacks – A Guide to Linear Motion Systems

A screw jack is a mechanical device that lifts objects by turning a screw. Its capacity depends on the number of gears. A gear in the first gear has a length of four times the length of the handle and a gear in the second gear has a length of six times the diameter of...
